FAILED LOGIN whostmgrd: login attempt to whm by a non-reseller/root
Hello,
when I try to log in to WHM with root user I get: "FAILED LOGIN whostmgrd: login attempt to whm by a non-reseller/root" in log.
id user:
uid=1000(user) gid=100(users) groups=10(wheel),100(users)
cpanel_and_whm: 11.112.0.5
operating_system_name: almalinux
operating_system_version: 8
how can I fix this problem.
I don't have much experience with Linux.
thank you,

When you say "root user", do you mean the username "root"? That doesn't look like "root", this does; [root@server1 ~]# id root uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=968(mysyslog),0(root) 0 -
no. not user root. another user with full sudo capability 0 -
a sudo user can execute commands, as root, in command line, but can't log in to WHM. 0 -
so there isnt a way to log in to WHM with it?! 0 -
No, but you can make that user a reseller, with root access 0 -
can I do that from ssh?! 0 -
Why don't you just change root password and log in as root? :rolleyes: 0 -
as I said " I don't have much experience with Linux. " :( 0 -
When you are in SSH as a sudo user, you do: sudo passwd root you give the password 2 times, and after that you can log in to WHM as root. 0 -
worked great. thank you so so much for your help. 0 -
